Put onto a drip for 48 hours ...wonderful nurses checked me all night while my temperature went up ..I felt melted ..but a shower room was in my 4 bed ward .the doctors came visiting on Sunday .after examining me ,I was told I could come home . Don't you knock the NHS ,,because ,when the chips are down .Two strong armed green angels appear ..named Mark and Jason ..whisk you off in their truck .then hold your hand till you feel safe !!.. Feeling my old self again now !! Twinkly

Just tuned in after a couple of days and saw your post Twinkly so sorry to hear you have not been well but I agree we have to thank God for the NHS. The photo of your dog is brilliant and must have brought a smile to everyone`s face who`ve seen it. Hope by now you are feeling well again. Regards Sue
